In order to keep your cassette tape player
performing the way it was meant to, read and
follow these simple precautions:
*
[AS44560(MBC )04/96]
q
Using a Ford Cassette Cleaning Cartridge or
equivalent to clean the tape player head after
10-12 hours of play will help maintain the
best playback sound and proper tape
operation.
*
[AS44570(MBC )08/95]
q
Only cassettes that are 90 minutes long or
less should be used. Tapes longer than 90
minutes are thinner and subject to breakage
or may jam the tape player mechanism.
*
[AS44580(MBC )08/95]
q
Protect cassettes from exposure to direct
sunlight, high humidity and extreme heat or
cold. If they are exposed to extreme
conditions, allow them to reach a moderate
temperature before playing.
*
[AS44590(MBC )08/95]
q
Loose labels on cassette tapes can become
lodged in the mechanism. Remove any loose
label material before inserting cassette.
*
[AS44600(MBC )08/95]
